Get Your Freq On

DigiTech continues to expand its iStomp e-pedal lineup with the introduction of its 3Q three-band EQ e-pedal. The 3Q gives guitarists and musicians three frequency bands of adjustable passive and active equalization for wide-ranging tone shaping.

Scott Klimt, marketing manager, DigiTech, told Amped, "An equalizer can be one of the most useful sonic tools in a guitar player's arsenal. Among its many uses our 3Q e-pedal lets beef up the sound of single-coil pickups, add some extra midrange to make your guitar solos 'cut' through the mix, or provide further control over the tone of distortion and overdrive pedals."

Digitech tells us that the 3Q features only 4 controls making it extremely easy to use. The Bass and Treble knobs are fixed-frequency boost/cut controls that are used to increase or decrease the low and high frequencies by +/- 12dB. The Mid Freq knob employs semi-parametric EQ with a sweepable frequency range of 500Hz – 3kHz while the Mid knob provides +/- 12dB of boost or cut for precise midrange tailoring.
